She walks with grace and Dignity Because she knows her savior. She knows that life's a gift, you see It shows in her behavior. She always has an ear to hear, She thinks before she talks. But every word she says is wise I hope my stride will mimic her walk. For freedom Christ did set us free She lives this verse out infinitely I look at her face and don't see her But the God who conquered death and hurt You see, her face is like a mirror, It reflects what she's been staring at. I look to her but see my savior, His steadfast love she does not lack. I say all this because she showed me Something that can't be taught with words. My mother's love is the closest thing To Jesus on this earth. She loved me when I was young, and small enough to hold. She loved me when I woke her up and didn't do what I was told. She loved me when I wasn't small and WAY too big to hold. She wrapped her arms around me, And told me I was beautiful. She loved me when the boys did not, But told me that they did. She loved me even when we fought And my stubborn streak was worse than I thought. She loved me when I was anxious to leave the nest she made. She understood that time would come, And loved me anyways. She loves me when my life is crazy, and I don't get a chance too call. She loves from across state lines, In the Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall. My Mother loves like Jesus does, her love is unconditional. I love My mom with all my heart, and in the deepest depths of my soul. The only reason I can love, Is cause she taught me how. She showed me Christ exemplified, So I will love my little one like she loves me now.
